A Letter from Holly Springs Parks and Recreation Athletic Department
Dear Coaches and Parents,
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the parents and coaches
involved with our Intro to Football program. Everyone is working hard to make this
season fun and successful.
The goal of the Parks and Recreation Intro to Football program is to provide
quality instruction which promotes sportsmanship, teamwork, development,
participation and fun; individually, to develop technical skills which will enhance
the ability, desire and confidence of each player. It is the coach’s responsibility to
instill this concept into all participants and their parents.
If anyone associated with your team loses sight of these objectives, please remind
them that this is about children playing a game. Our job, as parents and coaches,
is to facilitate a fun learning experience, and to lead by example. Often, the way
we react to things on and around the field teaches them more than the game itself.
If you have children that are not participating in our programs, for their safety, be
sure to watch them. Remember to keep our facilities clean and beautiful for
everyone to enjoy.
Sincerely,
Holly Springs Athletic Department
1.00 Purpose

intelligent supervision, while keeping the welfare of the youth first and foremost at all
times.

officials or participants, use of profane language or gestures, and public threat or physical
violence.
The length of the suspension will be determined by the Athletic Programs Manager.
Any player, coach, spectator or parent that enters the field of play and confronts and/or

MISCELLANEOUS RECAP
24 HOUR RULE: Parents sometimes disagree with a coach’s decision or coaching style,
especially when it involves their child. Parents have to understand that the coach does
not represent a player, but the entire team and must make decisions from the team
perspective first and foremost. For parents, it is important to separate their child’s sports
development from game emotions. For this reason, we have adopted the “24 HOUR
RULE”, which simply states that the coach will not discuss game situations until at least
24 hours after the game. This rule helps to move the discussion away from the presence
of the players and allows all parties to have time to put things in perspective and “cool off”
if necessary.
9.02 REFUNDS: All refund requests must be submitted in writing and addressed to the
Athletic Programs Manager, Holly Springs Parks and Recreation Department. The request
letter should state the reason for refund. Refunds requested after the official start date of
the particular program in which the participant is enrolled will not be refunded. Official start
date is defined as player placement on team. All refunds are assessed a $15 service
charge per participant per activity. Late fees are non-refundable. Requests for medical
related refunds will be evaluated on a case by case basis. If the Parks and Recreation
Department cancels a program, the total amount will be refunded.
9.01
10.0 Lightning Policy
1. When thunder is heard, or lightning is visible, the thunderstorm is close enough to strike
your location with lightning. Suspend play and all players, coaches, fans and umpires
should Take Shelter Immediately!
2. Flash (Bang) Method – Count seconds between lightning flash and thunder and divide by 5
– this gives the distance of lightning in miles. If count is 30 seconds or less Take Shelter
Immediately!
3. Safe places for shelter would be fully enclosed metal vehicles with windows up, enclosed
buildings or the low ground. Seek cover in clumps of bushes. Unsafe shelter areas include
all nearby outdoor metallic objects like flag poles, fences, high mast light poles, metal
bleachers, etc. AVOID water, AVOID open fields, AVOID using the telephone.
4.
5.
6.
7.
If you feel your hair standing on end or hear “crackling noises” you are in lightning’s electric
field. Immediately remove metal objects (including baseball cap), place your feet together,
duck your head and crouch down with hands on knees.
If anyone is struck by lightning CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY. People who have been struck by
lightning do not carry an electrical charge and are safe to handle. Apply CPR immediately if
you are qualified to do so.
Thirty-minute rule. Once play has been suspended, wait at least 30 minutes after the last
thunder is heard or flash of lightning is witnessed prior to resuming play. Any subsequent
thunder or lightning after the beginning of the 30 minute count, reset the clock and another
30 minute count should begin.
At the conclusion of the first thirty (30) minute delay, the game officials will determine
whether or not to continue or cancel the game(s). NOTE: If lightning is still visible after the
first thirty (30) minute delay, the game(s) will be cancelled and rescheduled on another day.
11.0
Tornado Policy
Tornado Watch (which means that conditions are favorable for tornadoes to form), all
activities will continue as scheduled when the National Weather Service issues a
Tornado Watch for Wake County. All participants and staff should monitor weather
conditions and announcements. Please monitor local media or weather radio for
weather alerts.
Tornado Warning (which means that a tornado has either been sighted or
considered to be imminent in the warned area), all activities should be suspended
when the National Weather Service issues a Tornado Warning for Wake County. All
participants should take shelter immediately and adhere to the following procedures:
I.
Seek shelter inside the facility.
II.
Go to an interior room on the lower level (closets, interior hallways). Interior
hallways on the lowest floor are usually safest. Put as many walls as
possible between you and the outside. Get under a sturdy table and use
arms to protect head and neck. Stay there until the danger has passed.
III.
Do not open windows. Use the time to seek shelter.
IV.
Stay away from windows, doors and outside walls. Go to the center of the
room. Stay away from corners because they attract debris.
V.
Get out of vehicles, trailers and mobile units immediately and go to the
lowest floor of a sturdy nearby building or a storm shelter. Mobile units,
even if tied down, offer little protection from tornadoes.
VI.
If caught outside with no shelter, lie flat in a nearby ditch or depression and
cover your head with your hands. Be aware of potential for flooding.
VII.
Do not get under an overpass or bridge. You are safer in a low, flat
location.
VIII.
Never try to outrun a tornado in urban or congested areas in a car or truck;
instead, leave the vehicle immediately for safe shelter. Tornadoes are
erratic and move swiftly.
IX.
Watch out for flying debris. Flying debris from tornadoes causes most
fatalities and injuries.
All activities should be resumed once the Tornado Warning has cleared for the Holly
Springs area and the conditions of the facility are safe. All participants and staff
should continue to monitor weather conditions and announcements. Please monitor
local media or weather radio for any additional weather alerts.
12.00 HOT WEATHER PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES
When practicing in hot weather or when exercising in a hot climate, the
body is usually able to maintain a safe temperature with the evaporation of
sweat. A young athlete can lose as much as two (2) quarts of sweat each
hour of practice or competition. This water must be replaced or the body
becomes dehydrated and does not function well. The water level can be
maintained in most sports by: (a) drinking 1 to 2 cups of water before
practice or competition, (b) taking frequent drinks during the activity (water
breaks) and (c) continuing to drink after the game or practice. Potassium
may be depleted after many days of work in a hot climate. This can easily
be replaced by eating citrus fruits and drinks, potatoes, bananas, and
other potassium rich foods. Some coaches like to use "athletic drinks" like
Gatorade, Powerade, etc. These drinks are unnecessary if you provide
plenty of water and schedule practices in the cooler parts of the day.
Should a Red Ozone Alert (all participants) and/or Orange Ozone alert
(those participants who are sensitive to heat and/or have breathing
problems) occur, coaches should take precautions.
1. Players should be given frequent scheduled water breaks.
2. Coaches should watch all participants closely for heat illness related
problems. If a child is having trouble, every precaution should be taken
to einsure that the participant remains safe and healthy.
Key Points to Remember
1. Aerobic fitness enhances the circulating system, which is responsible
for heat transfer. Also, fit individuals start to sweat sooner and do not get
so hot.
2. Four to eight days of practice in the heat will prepare young athletes to
compete in the uncomfortable environment.
3. Select uniforms and equipment that allows sweat to evaporate.
4. Make sure athletes know how important it is to drink a great deal of
water during the hot days and to eat potassium rich foods.
5. Do not deprive athletes of water under any circumstances since it risks
heat exhaustion during intense activity. Limiting water breaks should
never be a form of discipline!
